The Wonder of the Cross

V1 O precious sight, my Savior stands Dying for me with outstretched hands O precious sight, I love to gaze Remembering salvation’s day, Remembering salvation’s day Though my eyes linger on this scene May passing time and years not steal The power with which it impacts me The freshness of it’s mystery, The freshness of it’s mystery CH May I never lose the wonder, The wonder of the cross May I see it like the first time, Standing as a sinner lost Undone by mercy and left speechless Watching wide-eyed at the cost May I never lose the wonder, The wonder of the cross! V2 Behold the God-man crucified, The perfect sinless sacrifice As blood ran down those nails and wood History was split in two, yes, history was split in two Behold the empty wooden tree, His body gone, alive and free We sing with everlasting joy, For sin and death have been destroyed Yes, sin and death have been destroyed
